The last reaction of avidya
The so-called liberation of thinking oneself
God is that last reaction of avidya by which the living entity is
entrapped. The conclusion is that a living entity deprived of eternal
transcendental service to the Lord becomes illusioned in many ways. Even
in his conditional life he is the eternal servant of the Lord. His
servitude under the spell of illusory maya is also a manifestation of his
eternal condition of service. Because he has rebelled against the service
of the Lord, he is therefore put in the service of the maya. He is still
serving, but in a perverted manner. When he wants to get out of service
under material bondage, he next desires to become one with the Lord. This
is another illusion. The best course, therefore, is to surrender unto the
Lord and thus get rid of the illusory maya for good.
